Question Which Browser is best to use

Drew52

Novice
I have been using Google Chrome but I am now getting the "Hardware Acceleration Required" message despite it already being selected in my settings.
I am trying Firefox but it seems painfully slow and I am still getting the "Hardware Acceleration Required" message. :(
Are there tweaks I can implement or is there another Browser which performs better??

@Drew52 I know how it is, Herodite is correct put up a support ticket, we'll help you out, it's probably a log in issue, do you use PC or app?

I use Chrome and once in a while I have the same problem - that message but HA already selected in Settings. I just close the browser and after restarting all it's fine. Since I have another city on the same server, for that one I use FlashPeak Slimjet - looks like Chrome but it uses less resources and it's kinda faster than Chrome. I gave up on Firefox long time ago.

Like @Alcaro I think Chrome is best, but I also get that error randomly too, for no reason. Usually just refreshing the browser fixes it. Sometimes I have to hit refresh two or three times though.

Chrome is rhe best to use.
But if you use really old hardware (graphics) thats eol from its manufactorer for a long time and no longer suppported (usually graphics are supported for about 6-8 years since its first release)
The chrome also drops support as graphica drivers are no longer maintained and do no longer get security patches.

In that case firefox accepts it a bit longer but in general you need a hardware upgrade
